Don’t Lose Out On 2 Years Of Free Travel

Update: Some of the credit card offers in this post are no longer available. Check our credit card page for the latest offers.

Rumor has it that one of the best travel deals will be ending soon.

You can still get a Southwest Companion Pass after earning 110,000 points in a calendar year.

And the fastest way to get 110,000 points in a year is by applying for two Southwest credit cards.

You can get 50,000 points from a Southwest credit card. But, the 50,000 point signup bonus is ending March 5, 2014.

If you haven’t already gotten your Companion Pass, now’s a great time because you’ll get almost two years worth of use.

Chase Sapphire Preferred

The Chase Sapphire Preferred is the best card for beginning travel hackers. It is the first card you should get to start traveling for free because the welcome offer is 60,000 points (after spending $4,000 in the first three months).

 

My favorite perks about this card are earning 2X points on travel and dining, no foreign transaction fees, and transferring points to 13 airline and hotel partners like Hyatt, United, and Southwest.

Chase Freedom Unlimited

The Chase Freedom Unlimited is one of my favorite cards for earning cash back card and travel rewards. It offers a welcome offer of $200 (after spending $500 in the first three months).

 

My favorite perks about this card are earning 5% cash back at grocery stores the first 12 months (up to $12k), unlimited 1.5% cash back on all purchases and no annual fee. When paired with cards like the Chase Sapphire Reserve, you can use your points to travel for free.
